Mysterious Al: Blinking Into the Sunlight

Overview

An abandoned inner-city warehouse is about to get the royal treatment, as it plays host to a dramatic street art exhibition like you've never experienced before. Renowned UK artist Mysterious Al is returning to Melbourne to treat us to his first solo exhibition in three years, and he's chosen this top secret location as the setting.

Blinking Into the Sunlight will take guests on an experiential journey from darkness to light, with over 30 new works pulled together to create one multi-sensory live art spectacular. Expect light installations, photo opportunities and a sprawling range of work, from small-framed designs through to large-format murals sprayed onto old barn doors.

Hitting the spotlight in the UK's early 2000s street art scene, Mysterious Al's bold designs have earned him plenty of street cred, along with commissions from the likes of Vans, Yahoo!, Adidas, Volvo and Levi's.

The show is running for just one weekend, kicking off Friday, May 24, when you'll even have the chance to snap up some of Mysterious Al's never-before-seen pieces for your own collection. If you're keen to check out the show, jump on the artist's Instagram to find out the warehouse location when it's released — 24 hours before opening night.
